Comment (by davalpi@…):

 Another behavior I've observed while installing a fairly complex port (it
 was wine) is that get this parentless GUI dialog 'To use the command line
 tool "javac" you have to install an JDK' over and over again.

 I try to write down which ports stimulate the dialog while the
 installation proceeds and I have observed (dynamically) this same behavior
 on this ports:
 * gettext
 * clang
 * cmanke
 * bison

 (this is a partial list).

 My setup is : OSX (10.11.1 El Capitan ) and current XCode (xcodebuild
 -version -> Xcode 7.1 Build version 7B91b) - I do not have any JDK
 installed (I do not want one) but I have installed some latest JRE (jre-
 8u65-macosx-x64.dmg) from Oracle.

 There is at least a related ticket about gettext (#49077), but I suspect a
 more generalized behavior.

 I hope my observation helps but I dont know if is the case to CC: other
 port maintainers or not.
